Answer:

The correlation is where the fault lines are and earthquakes have happened, the hazard level would increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at California, the earthquake hazard is higher than Florida because of the major fault lines in California. A main fault is the San Andreas fault that has caused major earthquakes, like the one in 1906 in San Francisco.
